The Good Fight is a concept that transcends human conflicts, as exemplified by the World War II memorial, honoring those who gave their lives for liberty and justice. In the life of a believing Christian, this fight is ongoing, as they endure hardness and suffer for the sake of Christ, but are sustained by His grace and strength.

Welcome to the Days of Praise podcast, a daily devotional by the Institute for Creation Research. The Good Fight. I have fought a good fight. I have finished my course. I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4, 7. The beautiful World War II memorial in the nation's capital was dedicated in 2004, honoring the more than 400,000 who gave their lives in that conflict. including this writer's younger brother. This particular holiday, of course, originally known as Armistice Day, had been established many years before to commemorate the end of World War I and to honor the veterans of that war. There have been many other wars in our nation's history, and many who have served and many who have died.
They all have fought a good fight and kept the faith of our nation's commitment to establish liberty and justice for all, and to maintain this ideal in every generation. They fully merit our honor and heartfelt gratitude. There is another good fight going on, of course, every day in the life of each believing Christian. The Apostle Paul never served as a soldier in any human army, but he was often called on to endure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. As a matter of fact, each of us must remember that unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ not only to believe on Him, but also to suffer for His sake.
That suffering may be actual persecution or even injury or death on a battlefield. but it could also be poverty, or sickness, or some other messenger of Satan, sent to test and alienate us from the Lord. But then we can hear the Lord say, as with Paul, My grace is sufficient for thee, for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Whatever comes, may God help us to be able to say in that day, I have fought a good fight. I have finished my course.
I have kept the faith. If you've enjoyed today's devotional, be sure to subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts. And please rate and review so more listeners can find us.
